You missed Mani Davidson and Adam Major on the bench. Are we looking at giving the rest of this comp a miss ? Just curious.

[AndyReifman]

Not sure how we survive this season without bringing a player or two more in, not with these injuries.

Also, need us to get through to the next round so we might actually be on TV.

Fleetwood v Everton is probably worth £100k+ to Fleetwood... ...enough for a new player.

[Keith]

If Cooney can't even get on the bench when we're naming so many youth players, then he really is on his way out of the club

Maybe Obika, Cooney and Ryan McL are being lined up for transfer and aren't being played due to potential future cup matches with their new teams?

I don't think any of them are of sufficient quality to sign for a club that's good enough to make the 3rd round but its possible.

[Keith]

Well, 0-0 at half time. Sounds like we're working hard and defending well. No real threat from us, but that's not a surprise. Gibson mentioned a lot.

[lancaster shrimp]

Looking at that bench and with the players out. We still 2/3 signings imho.

[AndyReifman]

YESSSS!!! Time to clench the butt.

[Keith]

GET IN!!!!!

Sounds like Watts made the goal, but then Gnahoua scored superbly!

COME ON!!!

[Vinny]

GNAHOOOOOUAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! YESSSSSSS

[Born again Bill]

Sounds like a great goal from Arthur.

[Bare bum]

Whooohoo!

[Keith]

COME ON!!! Hang on lads!!!

Nearly there.

[AndyReifman]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! Bring on the third round.

When's the draw?

[Keith]

GET IN!!!

[Bare bum]

Wow.

[redrobo]

Told ya Watts deserved to be in.

Superb result.

[Born again Bill]

Next !!!

[Keith]

Now, PLEASE give us a decent draw in the next round. Liverpool/Man Utd/Man City away that will give us enough cash to bring in some extra players, players who actually want to be playing for Morecambe.

[Vinny]

Awesome win!!!! ONWARD the MIGHTY SHRIMPS!!!!

[Westgate Wanderer]

We of little faith!! Brilliant result. Nice home draw please
